Iris Van Herpen:scuptural pieces

The Iris Van Herpen 2010 collection is called Synesthesia.A Synesthesia is an a multisensorial experience, where multiple senses are involved.The wow effect is assured. All the pieces are scuptures obtained by an unusual leather work.Metallic leather strings wave and let catch a glimpse of nude or are rigid and draw a different woman silhouette.The leather skin tight corset are a second skin cut like a shiny armor.The dress with waving leather strings caught my eye and i'll try to make an inspired version of the skirt. I'm wondering how the put gold on black leather strings, i have to make some experiments.
